How to unlock the Peanut Punch achievement in Madden NFL 16 - Definitive Guide

The best way to unlock this one is to go the settings and edit the sliders for fumbles and increase the fumble chance for the Computer. Once you are in the game you can punt the ball every-time you are on the offence allowing for you to have more time on the defence and every play when the opposition has the ball get close to the carrier until you lock on to him at this point hold RB whilst tackling and you should unlock the achievement within a few tries, but it could be more or less depending on your luck.
The achievement will pop in game, if you are getting the fumble and gaining position and not getting the achievement its because you are pressing X or A to make an aggressive tackle which will be causing the fumble itself and not the strip mechanic, a tip is just to spam RB when you are in tackling range.

Should mention it has to be done against the CPU as 2 controllers don't work

Does it not work if you mess with sliders? Can it not be rookie difficulty? Stripped a ton last night vs the computer with no achievement popping.

It pops as soon as you get it. Set my sliders, turned off the offsides penalties, walked right up next to the QB as he snapped it, held RB, boom, fumble. ACH UNLOCKED

@thekissel No where does it say you can turn offsides off. I turn the slider down to 0 but that's to help the computer jump offsides. When I do what you said, I just get a penaltie for being offsides.

It really seems like this is impossible, ive been trying this for multiple hours now and not a single scenario seems to work. The game just ignores my RB entirely and goes for an ordinary tackle every time.

Enabled the punch skill for everyone, tried multiple things with two controllers, the punt scenario, the offside scenario, im out of ideas.

EDIT: Finally got it in a normal (all-madden) cpu match. The cpu had just started a run play, and I stripped the ball with what looked like a tackle. Wasnt offside and didn't recover the fumble

I used the strip ball mechanic in an online game and did not receive the achievement. However, the player got the ball back and I didn't recover the fumble — so it should be clarified that not only do you need to do the act, but you need to end up with the ball at the end of the play as well.

@Shh I am Batman: I have no idea if you need to play to the end of the game, but I'm going to assume you don't need to because in the past, in-game feats like this in Madden games popped after you did it.

Do you need to play to the end of the game to get the achievement to pop? I just strip-sacked Jameis Winston twice with the rip mechanic, and once to one of their WR, which was clearly a strip-fumble, and the achievement hasn't popped.

I thought I would chime in since I have used this for advice.

The easiest way I have found for this is:

1. As others have stated go to the gameplay sliders and turn fumbles all the way to the left.

2. Play on rookie.

3. Force a punt.

***4. BEFORE the ball is hiked take your player and stand by the punter and way for the hike. Not in front of him but on the side or behind where you can get him.

5. Press rb or R1when close and in the clone soon as he gets the ball.

6. Profit

You will get a penalty but it worked for me. Hope that helps.

Perfect. I'd suggested adding that the Alt-22 camera helps a lot since the best position to set up your player is usually off the screen otherwise.

I just got this achievement.
I turned the CPU sliders to 0 ; Pass Blocking, Run Blocking, and Fumbles.

I got it on a run play and spammed the RB (right bumper) like The Gee King recommend and the Running Back Fumbled it. I didn't recover the fumble and the Achievement pooped right away no delay for me.


Also a thought.
If you are playing on the Xbox One some times the achievements don't show up right away. I have a achievement show 100% completion and didn't poop for a few days. If you think you got it check your achievement list through the Xbox One.

This year’s game changes the how the strip ball mechanic works. In opposition to previous years it is mapped to the button. To attempt to strip the ball from the ball carrier press when you are within tackling range. The tacking range is displayed under your defender as a blue circle.

If given the opportunity (two player games or play now vs. the CPU), edit the fumble slider down to 0. The easiest opportunities to strip the ball come on kickoff/punt returns and QB sacks.

One of the best ways to get this trophy is to use two controllers with edited rosters and sliders. With two controllers, you can easily set up a scenario where you can sack the QB as much as you like.

First turn player skill pass blocking and fumbles down to zero. For the offense, choose a pass play where all the eligible receivers go out on a pass pattern. On defense have everyone in a zone except for you. Hot route your other DLs to play zone and not rush the QB. Now you will have all day to sack and strip the QB.

For visual assistance please use the below video:


 
 
If you are still having trouble then edit the opposing Quarterback's "carry" down to 0. Now he'll drop the ball if you look at him with a scary face.

From the Main Menu, select Customize > Settings > Settings > CPU Skills. Now turn the CPU Skills for Fumble down to 0. Once in a game and on defense, when tackling an offensive player, press to attempt a strip. Once you strip the ball, causing the offensive player to fumble and you recover the fumble, the achievement will unlock.

Force a fumble and recover the ball in any play other than rewind and practice.
You can go into the settings and set the parameters CPU = 0 for Fumble
Then, attacking the player, press when the icon appears above it
When the ball is knocked out of the hands of the attack, your team must take possession of the ball, then you will receive
The easiest way, if it doesn’t work with a PC, play with a second controller, you’re on defense, attacking the QB until it works.
